Edward Milano, III, 52, of Metuchen, passed away suddenly on Friday morning, August 15, 2025, while on a business trip in San Diego, CA.

Born and raised in Metuchen, Ed was a lifelong resident of the community he loved.

He was a proud graduate of Metuchen High School, Class of 1990, and went on to earn his Bachelor of Arts degree from New Jersey City University. His passion for sound and music led him to further his education at the SAE Institute, where he earned his diploma in Audio Engineering.

For the past three years, Ed worked as Technical Director and Project Manager for Audio Visual Dynamics in Hackettstown, NJ, a company he had long been connected with through freelance work before joining full time.

Ed was predeceased by his father, Edward Milano, and his aunt Michelle Laskowitz.

He is survived by his devoted wife of 20 years, Heidi (Swan) Milano; his loving mother, Lynn (LaBrecque) Milano; his sister, Carey Milano Kloske; and his cherished nephews, Kip, Carson, and Cade Kloske. He is also leaving behind his aunt Janis LaBrecque, aunt, Leslie Long Wallace, and uncle, Howard LaBrecque.  He will also be deeply missed by his faithful and nutty, canine companions, Rex and Kanan.
